Description: Kings center Anze Kopitar had a goal and an assist on Saturday.

Insight: Kopitar has eight goals and 17 assists this season, which is disappointing after last season's Cup run. Kopitar is also minus-five, which is his worst rating since 2008-2009. Last season, he was plus-34. Hopefully Kopitar can get going soon.

Insight: It was his sixth goal of the season, and Kopitar now has 13 points overall. He has been disappointing this season, but hopefully Thursday's goal gets him going.

Insight: Kopitar scored 29 goals and 70 points in 82 games last season and has scored at least 61 points in every full season. But he's only cracked 80 points one time. The addition of Gaborik might change that.

Description: Kings forward Anze Kopitar scored his eighth goal of the season on his lone SOG Saturday against the Flames.

Insight: After taking at least 230 SOG in four straight seasons, Kopitar has just 34 in 22 games this season, a pace of 127 per 82 games. However, he has still been a point-per-game player due to a 23.5 scoring percentage and 14 assists. He has 19 points in his last 17 games.

Description: Kings forward Anze Kopitar assisted on Los Angeles' first goal and later scored the game-winner in a 2-1 victory over Detroit Wednesday night.

Insight: Kopitar took four SOG in Wednesday's game, which is surprisingly more than he took in the previous three games combined. Despite averaging just 1.6 SOG per game (2.8 last season), Kopitar has six goals and 17 points in 17 games. He has attempted at least 230 SOG in the last four seasons so we expect him to start firing away in the second half.

Description: Kings forward Anze Kopitar didn't have any issues with his injured knee after making his season debut on Tuesday. SOURCE: LAKingsInsider.com

Insight: "The knee feels good. I didn't have any problems with it. I pretty much forgot I was wearing (a brace) out there." Kopitar has potential to be a point-per-game contributor and should be owned in all leagues.

Insight: The original injury had a 3-4 week timeframe, but he'll apparently play a lot sooner with the help of a knee brace. Kopitar had 25 goals and 51 assists last season and is obviously a must start if on the ice.

Description: Kings center Anze Kopitar (knee) skated on his own this week and has been fitted for a knee brace.

Insight: The original injury had a 3-4 week timeframe, but it is looking like he'll only miss one week of the regular season if there are no setbacks. This is good news for one of the league's top centers and fantasy owners of his linemates Dustin Penner and Justin Williams as well.

Insight: Kopitar's agent said this week that the forward would need 3-4 weeks but it looks like he'll be back sooner than that. He should only miss two or three games in addition to training camp, but he's been playing in Sweden and should be ready to go when his knee heals. The center has exceeded 70 points in four of the last five seasons.
